As per usual this plant tells me it needs watering by looking limp, it doesn't mean the pots are dry it just means its demanding more water. We're gunna need a bigger tent!

Mad heatwaves this week has really made these girls take off I'm still lst them along the soil floor and hidden amongst other plants. Just a little fun whatever happens with them it's not a big deal

. 🌱 : 💧 : 2l day 14 💡 : Dli 30 mol/m²/d 🤔 :

7/4 SUN was poking out a little bit. Plants loved that little feeding and seen to he noticeable larger this morning. I'm considering starting the nutes. At least the organic ones as well as upping the water intake I've been scared to water with all this rain and my experience last time. I plan on applying BT this afternoon and doing some work on the bottoms of the plants. I also saw a chipmunk in my cage so I have some spots in my fence that need to be patched. I know I can't compare this year to orher years as these are seeds and all the other years were clones. I CAN say for certain that my plants are healthiest they've been out of any of my journals. Previous plants were much larger but I was fighting numerous fungal, pathogens and pests at the sane time. Ear wigs would've lollipopped most buddies by now but I've seen no sign of them. I'm going to apply more poison where they were and add some rat traps inside the cage for the chipmunks. Once I fix the cage I think I'll be good. UPDATE: Went back over and fixed the holes on my cage from high winds. I found an old wire trap or cage and just cut sections and ziptied them to the existing wire and to the structure thus covering any open holes. I'll need to put lathes aroubdvtge outside because if a rodent REALLY wanted in they could get in. My belt had been wearing thin but I use shit until it breaks (yesterday the heal came off my shoe lol) so I was working hard sweating my nuts off and my belt gives out totally. At least ive got the major stuff done. I took a few videos too. I'm imagining it was this little bit of sun that gave these plants that boost of growth but I'm wondering if the added nutes had anything to do with it. Bags weren't light and I could feel moisture in the soil so I didn't water. I'll check again tomorrow morning. Since I didn't see many plants or even leaves for that matter with damage I decided to hold off ob the BT and the plant doctor. Only time will tell if that was the right decision. 7/5 Plants look fantastic. I see a few more holes in leaves sporadically amd I'm hoping it's pillars. I've seen lots of lightning bugs on my camera though and grasshoppers are abundant. Not one growth shoot has been chewed (knock on wood) which is what the earwigs had always done. I watched a video from last year and by nowcthey had lollipopped all lower leaves. It may not be the best weather growing season wise but despite the rh consistently in the 90's I still don't have pm or fungal pathogens. Need to get the BT out. Didn't water as we've had all that rain. I'll water either tonight or tomorrow morning. Sunny high in the 90s low is 66. Tomorrow looks good too. UPDATE WENT BACK OVER AROUND FIVE. IT WAS 88 DEGREES SO I WANTED TO CHECK THE GROW BAGS. THE POTS ARE FINE. IT WAS HUMID AS HELL. ONE PLANT WAS SLIGHTLY DROOPY BUT VERY LIGHT AND DRY. I FOUND TWO OTHERS THAT SEEMED LIGHTER THAN THE REST BUT HADNT DROOPED. I MIXED TWO GALLONS OF WATER WITH 1TSP KANGOROOTS AMD PHED IT CLOSE TO 6. I FED THE 3 PLANTS THAT WERE SUPER DRY LIKE A HALF GALLON AND SPRED THE REST OVER THE OTHER EIGHT PLANTS. THEY WERENT DROOPING BUT THEY WERE VERY DRY. I PLAN ON A FULL WATER TOMORROW. I WOULDVE DONE IT TODAY IF THE TEMPS WERENT SO HIGH. ITS RAINED A MONTH STRAIGHT SO I HAVENT HAD TO WATER. I MADE A COUPLE VIDEOS BUT I'LL HAVE TO UPLOAD TOMORROW. 7/6 Another super hot day. I hefted the pots and they still had some weight but I could tell they were dry. This rain has messed up my watering schedule. Well it made it so I didn't NEED to water. These are big plants now. I need to get a schedule to stick too. They're going to probably need a gallon a piece at least. I'm still nervous watering. Right now I'm just reading the plants. I added .5tsp kelp me/you to 1 gallon of water to help with heat stress. I fed an additional two gallons to the garden this morning including the two container plants in the back. They were dry on top too but I know they have water deeper down. Next watering I'll be more consistent and try to give them there 10%. It's great having the bags elevated. I can finally see when I start getting run off. I could even measure the ph of it instead of relying on that meter. Ill check the ph when I go back over. Still a few 🐛 holes but they are few and far between. I really don't want to spray for such a small problem but if I cant find them at night that's what I'll do. UPDATE: Another 90 degree day. I went back over and gave the garden a gallon of water as they were dry and it didn't rain. Tried to use a soil ph meter to check ph. First couple were 6.4, 6.5 then I got 7.3 and I accidently dropped it. Then I got somethings that were high eights and even one 9! Obviously the Meter shit the bed. I'll lower the ph of the water slightly when I fully water tomorrow and I'm going to measure the runoff. 7/8 I must've messed up the journal again as the dates are off. GAVE PLANTS A FULL WATERING. Each girl got a gallon. I couldn't upload my videos this morning as I had to break up a fight. 3 on 1. Didn't give me a chance to put the videos up. I'll take some stills then I can upload them. I took stills and they all uploaded but didn't fucking save. I'm nit going to keep trying to upload if it's not going to. Noticed a few more holes in leaves and one skeletinized leaf so I need to either spray the bt or something more versatile. I'm putting more poison around the cage and de between the bags. I'll go check things out tonight. Sick of writing a book and uploading to just hace them disappear 7/9 Did a quick video today. Noticed the bags were fairly light despite the plants being soaked amd the pallets wet. I was pressed for time. I gave two gallons to the entire garden. I hope that will hold them over until tomorrow. I'll need to up how much water I give them. Going with a gallon and a half next time. I see more pillar spots and a moth took off when I shook the plants this morning. So I'm gonna have too apply the BT. I figure if I go over before dark tonight I might be able to see aju nocturnal insects around. Luckily my dad feeds the birds and they are always there. I think they help with pests. UPDATE IT WAS A LITTLE COOLER TODAY BUT MICH MORE HUMID. I WENT AROUND SIX TO MAKE SURE THE GIRLS WERE OK WITH WATER AND TO GIVE THEM A TREATMENT OF BT. I WENT THROUGH THE GARDEN ANDCGOUND THREE LEQVES TO DEFOLIATE AND LITERALLY A COUPLE LEAVES ON TWO PLANTS WITH PILLAR HILESM WHEN I ARRIVED TWO BIRDS FLEW OUT. A HORNET CAME IN WHILE I WAS THERE. THIS DO LESS APPROACH SEEMS TO BE REALLY WORKING. I DODNT SEE NEARLT ENOUGH DAMAGE TO WARRANT SPRAY8NG MY EXTREMELY HEALTHY GIROS WITH ANYTHING. ILL KEEP AN EYE ON THEM AND CLEAN THEM UP A BIT. I DO NEED TO INSTALL THE VERY8CAL TRELLIS FOR SUPPORT. THEYRE PRETTY HEALTHY THOUGH. ONE PLANT IS ABOUT AS WIDE AS IT IS TALL. STILL......PLANTS ARE EXPLODING AND ITS GETTING TIGHT IN THERE. I NEED TO GET THE TRELLIS UP THOUGH. 7/10 I went over and was planning to water. Plants were wet and it's raining. Top of the medium was moist but the bags were light. ONE bag was super light but seeing that we are having showers all day and an additional half inch of rain coming tonight so I didn't water them. Especially since they looked great. Decided to to spray BT yet as the damage is so small and i think the birds have been taking care of the pillars for me. Now I'm wondering if I should've gave that ONE plant a little bit of water but it will be find. Did a video. I'm being careful not to over water. Last year this is when all my buddies were devoured by earwigs. And no senescence like the years before. I think it was hust those earwigs. I haven't lost shot for leaves. Even the stalks are bright green and look amazing.

21 days of flower 🌸🌼

Fifth week of vegetation started. I've changed the water into the pots. The fan is turned three hours on, one off. Inkbird parameters are unchanged (20° -3° H +2°C). Plants are healthy and started to be bushy. Light power to 100%. D29: changed water and added fresh nutrients: for each 20 liters pot I've added 35ml grow, 20ml micro and 15ml bloom. pH @ 5.7, EC 1.8 I've added 10 ml of pH- to each pot. D31: plants become thirsty, I've refilled each pot with at least 0.5 l of tap water. pH @ 5.7, EC @ 1.5. D32: check, things are going well. D34: check: [email protected] EC 1.5. Added 1l tap water to each pot.

As week 2 comes to an end 4 of the 5 have shown great growth 1 is behind (#5) but it also has a mutation and has a few 4 leafers on it. #3 is shorter and has wider leaves.

Really nice growth this week. I'm going to give it one more week in veg and then change to flower. I think she's going to be a beast 😊

Hello my friends 👨‍🌾👩‍🌾, This week I've continued my training, Removed several leaves making shadow, I'll continue to remove leaves and next week. Today I've transplanted the ladies in 11l pot with plagron batmix. I've given 600 ml/plants 2 times. After transplanted 1.2l/plants Start week, mid week, today 1x water + tera vega + boost 1x water + cannazym 1x water + rhizo PH@6 Starting 12 12 next week, last growth week! Not yet found the bugs, maybe removed in same time than leaves, because not too much damage this end week. Thanks community for follow, likes, comments, always a pleasure 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾❤️🌲 Also to @marshydrococo2 , @News_SweetSeeds for sponsoring 💕💕. Mars Hydro TS 1000 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ts-1000-led-grow-light Gorilla Girl F1 fast version https://sweetseeds.es/en/photoperiod-dependent-seeds/3065-gorilla-girl-f1-fast-version.html See you next week my friends Have a good week end 😁💕

Such a pleasure to grow her, she came from an auto m8 and she ended up being Photoperiod, apart from that I'm glad I've discovered her, because her buds have one of the most special and sweetest fragrance I've ever smelled in a cannabis flower, super sweet and tropical guys, such a cool strain, I definitely want to fill a lot of jars of this for my personal stash, everytime I smell her flowers makes me remember the Caribbean Islands.

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 6 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno B (Folder 13B) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent. If you're joining the adventure for the first time, welcome! This project follows four individual Blue Waffle F1 plants from Zamnesia, all growing inside exactly the same environment, under the same lighting, receiving the same nutrition and following the same training schedule. Everything is identical. The only difference is the seed itself. That's what makes this project so interesting. Watching genetically stable F1 plants develop their own subtle personalities while removing as many environmental variables as possible allows us to really appreciate both their consistency and their individuality. Today we're checking in with Plant B. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Week Six – Building the Canopy Another fantastic week has passed inside the Blue Tent, and Plant B continues proving why I'm becoming such a fan of these Blue Waffle F1 genetics. After installing the SCROG net last week, the objective has completely changed. We're no longer trying to grow taller plants. Now we're growing sideways. Since tightening the SCROG net, all four plants are sitting at roughly the same height—around 60 cm—as the branches are continuously guided beneath the screen instead of being allowed to grow vertically. Every day I spend a few minutes gently tucking the tallest branches back underneath the net. As soon as one shoot rises above the canopy, it's carefully guided into the next square, allowing another branch to catch up. It's a slow process. But it's also one of the most satisfying parts of growing. The reward comes later, when every flowering site receives nearly identical light intensity across the entire canopy. Plant B has responded beautifully. She's steadily filling her section of the tent and showing exactly the kind of structure I was hoping for. ──────────────────────── 🌿 A Stable F1 Showing Her Strength One thing becoming increasingly obvious is just how stable these F1 genetics really are. Although each plant has its own small personality, all four sisters are developing remarkably similarly. The structure... The vigour... The colour... The response to feeding... Everything is wonderfully consistent. Plant B has maintained her compact, organised architecture while expanding nicely across the screen. The rich green colour has fully returned after increasing the nutrient strength a couple of weeks ago, and the new growth is healthy, vibrant and full of energy. Looking across the tent now, it's honestly difficult not to smile. The girls simply look happy. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment The environment has remained very stable once again despite the summer heat outside. This week's average conditions were: • Day Temperature: 30°C • Night Temperature: 25°C • Relative Humidity: 58% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.92 mS/cm • CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • Light Schedule: 18/6 • Irrigation: 1.2 litres per plant per day The warm nights are something I'll be keeping an eye on once flowering begins, as higher night temperatures can encourage a little extra stretch during the first weeks after the flip. That's tomorrow's problem though. Today our only objective is filling every square of that SCROG. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding & Irrigation Nothing changes this week because the plants have given me absolutely no reason to change anything. The feeding schedule remains: • Plagron Hydro A — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 1.9 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L With only small pH adjustments whenever required. Some growers may look at an EC of 1.92 and think it's relatively high. My plants disagree. Their colour is rich. The leaves are praying. Growth is vigorous. The stems continue thickening every day. Plants don't care what feeding chart someone else follows. They care whether their own needs are being met. These girls have made their opinion very clear. ──────────────────────── 💧 Drip Irrigation & Automatic Drainage The Mars Hydro drip irrigation system continues making life wonderfully easy. Each plant receives approximately 1.2 litres of nutrient solution every day, delivered slowly and evenly through individual drippers positioned above each grow bag. Once the nutrient solution has passed through the coco, the runoff is automatically collected and removed by the drainage system installed beneath the pots. Together these two systems create an incredibly consistent root environment while removing much of the daily workload that normally comes with coco growing. Instead of carrying watering cans... I get to spend my time watching plants. That's a trade I'll happily make every day. ──────────────────────── 🐛 The Caterpillar Who Chose The Wrong Plant Every garden eventually reminds us that nature always finds a way. This week, Plant B became the only sister to receive an unexpected visitor. Somehow a tiny caterpillar managed to hitchhike its way from my vegetable garden into the Blue Tent and decided that Plant B's beautiful leaves looked particularly delicious. I have to admit... She must have looked especially healthy if even the caterpillar couldn't resist having a taste! Fortunately, regular daily inspections meant the damage was caught almost immediately. The caterpillar was removed by hand, the affected leaves were carefully trimmed away, and the problem never had an opportunity to develop into anything more serious. It also served as a perfect reminder that no matter how careful we are—and I always shower, change clothes and enter the grow room as clean as possible—nature can still surprise us from time to time. Clean habits reduce risk. Regular observation eliminates it. ──────────────────────── 🛡️ Integrated Pest Management Following the discovery, the entire tent received a thorough IPM (Integrated Pest Management) inspection. IPM isn't about waiting until pests become a problem. It's about combining good hygiene, regular inspections and preventative practices so problems are found while they're still tiny. As an additional precaution, I also used the Future of Grow UVC LED bar. Used correctly, UVC light can help reduce unwanted spores and microorganisms that may have entered the grow room, making it another useful preventative tool within an overall IPM strategy. It's important to mention that UVC should always be handled carefully. Direct exposure can damage both plants and skin, so eye protection and proper safety procedures are essential whenever using this type of equipment. Thankfully... One hungry caterpillar became nothing more than a short interruption to an otherwise fantastic week. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant B Herself Plant B continues becoming one of the easiest plants to train inside the tent. Her branches remain flexible, her internodal spacing is excellent and she seems perfectly happy being guided beneath the SCROG every single day. She's not racing ahead. She's building a beautifully organised framework that should become an outstanding flowering canopy once the time comes. Every week she seems a little fuller. Every week she looks a little stronger. And every week these Blue Waffle genetics impress me a little more. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead If everything continues progressing at this pace, I expect the screen to be almost completely filled by next week. Once that happens, the next major milestone will be a final clean-up and defoliation before flipping the Blue Tent into flower. Until then the routine stays wonderfully simple. Guide the branches. Maintain the environment. Keep the roots happy. Trust the process. Nature already knows what she's doing. We're simply helping her do it a little more efficiently. ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible, from these incredibly stable Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for providing the Premium Coco Growbags together with the Hydro nutrient line that continues producing beautiful, healthy growth week after week. A special thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system that has transformed daily watering into an almost effortless routine. A huge thank you as well to Future of Grow for the UVC LED bar, which has now become another valuable tool in my preventative IPM routine. Thank you to GrowDiaries for providing this amazing platform where growers from around the world can learn from one another, share experiences and document our journeys. And finally... Thank you to every single one of you following Project Blue Tent. Whether you've been here since germination, recently joined the adventure, leave comments every week or simply enjoy looking through the photos, your support genuinely means the world to me. Hopefully next week the screen will be completely filled, we'll perform our final defoliation and begin preparing these beautiful ladies for the next exciting chapter... Flowering. Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and I'll see you all soon. 🌱💙

2/10 Fed 2/10 water ph 6.3 2/14 fed tonight happy valentines

Repotted in definitive pot. Gonna top those in the next days. Something I learned: water on the edge of the pot, as roots extends as much as possibile.

Всем привет 🖖 Бортовой журнал запись 8 Я начну эту запись с того что расскажу вам о трагедии которая произошла сегодня у меня дома 18.02.2023 Первые 2 видео я снимал сам, там не видно языков пламени, не успел заснять этот ужас который я видел. Было спокойное утро 09.32 часов, как обычно звучала сирена звук воздушной тривоги который звучит каждый день по несколько раз. Я поехал в другой конец города менять документы, мы стояли на парковке с моей девушкой и пили кофе, рядом с нами было десятки людей, и тут мы слышим взрывы ракет. Россия государство терорист эти преступники и убийцы в очередной раз нанесли новый ракетный удар. Это был ужас, сначала упала одна ракета и прозвучал очень сильный громкий взрыв, все люди начали кричать и плакать от страха, спустя минуту прозвучал второй взрыв....... Громкие хлопки и языки пламени поднялись на десятки метров в воздух. Это ужас, это очень страшно, взрывы огонь звуки сирены, кругом крики людей и паника. Русские убийцы стреляют по обычным домам, я хочу что бы каждый кто это читает знал то что россия это террористы которые убивают мирных граждан своими ракетами !!! В результате обстрела пострадали 3 учебных заведения, несколько жилых домов, 17 автомобилей, раненых....... Ублюдки горите в аду!!!! 🇺🇦 💪 УКРАИНА 💪 🇺🇦 мы победим! СЛАВА УКРАИНЕ!!! ГЕРОЯМ СЛАВА!!! Дневник. Мне тяжело вести дневник, кто читает мои записи знает что у меня нет света, нет отопления, на нас падают ракеты...... Растения сладко пахнут, цветы дозревают несмотря на что, много ещё прозрачных трихом которые так и манят своим сладким ароматом. Purple Punch почему-то не меняет свой цвет на пурпурный, немного фиолетового оттенка есть но я надеялся что они будут фиолетовые. С водой обратного осмоса смешал Delta 9 и Booster это был последний полив удобрениями, дальше только вода. Я устал пить алкоголь, успокоительное, снотворное что бы уснуть что бы не бояться что меня и мою семью убить, я хочу покурить эти цветы что бы мне стало спокойно. Каннабис меня лечит от тривоги, бессонницы, нервов. Всем мирного неба 💪🇺🇦 будьте живы и здоровы..... Пока......

Buds are coming along nicely, they started off with a not so appealing smell but eventually started to smell very sweet. Increased dosage for increased blooming and ripening. Missed update for day 49 but vids from previous day makes up for it. Side note, I created a homemade Co2 bag with ingredients that is easily available and affordable. I don't think I let is have an effect on my buds but it sure did smell awful. After the 5th day, I got rid of it.

Hello folks 😎 7th week of flowering and the heat is still here 😔I hope to have cooler temperatures quickly, otherwise, the drying phase will be complicated... Because of that, I noticed the beginning of a little foxtailing on some buds ! but nothing serious At the beginning of this week, I gave them their last watering with nutrients ( about 520 ppm ) and in the middle of the week, I started the flush 👌 For the trichomes, many are milky but there is still time left 😊 Good news, I will completely change my tent and my equipment for the next crop, bigger tent, better light etc. ( soon ™️) But that's another story ! 😁 Anyway Stay tuned and see you next week guys 😘 I also have another diary with one Pineapple kush from RQS if you want to see Peace Love & Weed GD Fam😍👊

Training topped

All fine, i still can't believe how easy it going.

War ein run der seine Zeit gebraucht hat und zum Glück bekommen hat. Ist Mitte der Blüte ins den Wintergarten gezogen, das hat geholfen.

Day 56 flowering: This lady continues to amaze me with her want to keep going on. I think this last week has been a swelling week ,mixed with a new pistil flush that is still in full swing. Now she has more room to spread out , her lowers are getting some nice par and a starting to look close to a finish now too. Her smell is so fresh peeled fruit that it makes me drool when I smell them up close. lol. The bud rot is sorted and not been any issue since I sorted the dehumidifier out and checking through the huge buds , there are no more sites of concern at all. I did finish the drought stress at day 5 instead of the full 9 days I wanted to try, I coukd not see them start to look rough amd lose the green so had to begin the feed again. lol I am checking the trichromes occasionally now too and seeing a lot of clear still but certainly starting to cloud up in a lot of the bud stacks. She takes about 15L from dry to water the pots and by the next day she has sucked the surface few inches dry so feeding very well again now. I think at least another week for her to finish pushing her pistils and starting to ripen. Well worth the extra time to finish her perfectly as Sweet seeds intended. Thanks for coming by. I hope you will join me on the Auto grow of this strain by Sweet seeds in the next run. Be safe and well Growmies
